About ratio and rate word problems

Choose rate problems (price of one item, miles per hour, pages per minute, time to fill), ratio problems (scaling a recipe, parts of a whole, a map scale) or a mix. Every problem has one number as its answer, and the unit is printed after the answer box.

Numbers are chosen so each answer comes out exactly, in whole numbers or in dollars and cents. Each solved example shows the reasoning step by step.

Printing

US Letter or A4, portrait: choose your paper size above. Print at 100 percent (actual size). Use "Black and white" for the copier, or "Color" for display pages and mini books.
